Faith upon Intellect. The Argument of Pedro de la Caballería in Favor of Trinity
Abstract
In this article we analyze the arguments of the Jewish apostate Pedro de la Caballería in his work Tractatus zelus Christi contra iudaeos, sarracenos et infideles. We will see that Pedro do not give rational argument in favor on the Christian dogmas. By opposite he argues that people have to believe only according to the authority of the scripture and other authoritative texts. By the end of the article we will conclude that his opinion on rationality come probably from his Jewish background as a follower of kabbalah.
